The Washington's Birthday Match is an Arizona tradition going back more than a century -- this is number 117 coming up.  Here in Arizona, that's practically prehistoric.  They match is set up for four-man teams, each shooting separate relays.  Son Brandon and I are planning to shoot and we have room for at least one and possibly two teammates.  Anyone interested in joining us? 

February 21 clinic and match on February 22.

And -- the rifle?  Wouldn't go out naked of a rifle.  When shoes and clothes and food, when even hope is gone, we'll have the rifle.

Wow, Chris.  That sounds like a great offer.  I unfortunately will be pulling myself together from spending the previous WEEK at Ben Avery with the NMLRA Western National Shoot.  If you are able stop by and visit on Trader's Row Feb 11-15.  Visiting/watching is FREE!

I hope you will be able to join us at Buckeye or Payson or both.

Great to see you posting occasionally on this site.

Maybe next year?  This year I'm in El Paso for that weekend, running a shoot.

That sounds like a fabulous way to spend President Washington's Birthday. I can think of no better way to honor him than being involved in some sort of shooting event that weekend.

We will be celebrating that Great man at an Appleseed in Piru, CA, Feb. 21-22.

I'm sure you and your son will have a wonderful time, and surely someone is available that weekend to join you.
